Ignition coil DELPHI or Bremi
I replaced all coils with Bremi 20128 red tops and used liquid electric tape to reinsulate the exposed wire.
Pros: reinsulate exposed wire
Cons: melted insulation
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Part number: 20128
Replaced it with OEM Bremi coil (Made in Turkey), same as in car when new. Cost $110. with tax and shipping. Runs smoother than with the aftermarket.
Pros: runs smoother
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Beetle
Part number: 06A905097
Don’t get Bosch coils or plugs. Get Delphi coils, they’re the updated design. As for plugs go with NGK
Pros: updated design
I’ve used both. Didn’t notice any difference. Have Delphi’s right now. Both work great for light and mid tuned setups.
Pros: work great, no difference
Vehicle:
BMW
Delphi will be all you need. Delphi are fine even on ST setups running 700+whp. There’s really no need for others.
Pros: reliable for high power
Vehicle:
BMW
Stepdad recommended replacing ignition coils, so I purchased a 4 pack of Delphi GN 10369 from amazon. Sure enough, we just replaced the coils, and boom, it ran good as new (to me).
Pros: ran good as new, fixed misfire
Vehicle:
Acura TSX
Part number: GN 10369
I have a 2017 Forte with the regular manual transmission 2L non-GDI engine. At about 19,000 miles I started getting a strange sudden drop in RPM at random times (idle or on freeway). I would mostly notice the loss in power when it dropped and it would return to normal usually in less than five seconds. Never got any codes and car ran great 99.9% of the time.
As I approached 23,000 miles it got more frequent and finally threw a P0302 (Cyl 2 Misfire). I inspected spark plugs first. To no surprise they were in great condition. I swapped cylinder 2's ignition coil to cylinder 3, cleared the codes with my scanner, and the coders all cleared. About two days later I got a P0303 (Cyl 3 Misfire).
I ordered a Delphi ignition coil (GN10877) on Rockauto to replace the suspect ignition coil. Haven't experienced the issue since. Car also idles so well now that I can't feel it in steering wheel or hear it at idle.
I had no idea how bad that ignition coil was until it was replaced and was still shocked that it started failing at 19,000 miles.
Pros: resolved misfire, smooth idle
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 23000 km
Part number: GN10877
NGK plugs and Delphi coils. Do not get Bosch
Cons: do not get Bosch
I had troubles with Delphi units. Replaced all 6, then replaced them again with a wty set. Still had issues.
Cons: issues with Delphi units
Delphi quality has drastically dropped over the past 2 years. We’ve gotten multiple DOA units, and ones that fail within 6 months.
Cons: dropped quality, multiple DOA units, fail within 6 months
